The department's degree programs prepare students for professional careers in teaching and performance as well as in technical specialties while providing the liberal arts background necessary for graduate study. In the department's Performing Arts Series, students and faculty participate in professionally produced dance, musical, and theatrical events. Dance Area I he primary goals of the Dance area of the Department of Performing Arts are: 1) To develop aesthetically aware and artistically discriminating citizens; 2) To promote cultural understanding of ourselves and others through the study of dance; 3) To encourage appreciation of dance through critical thinking. 4) To provide opportunities for students and community members to participate in a range of dance experiences; 5) To foster an understanding of and engagement in the creative process in dance performance, improvisation, choreography, teaching and collaborative endeavors; 6) To provide the guidance class work, and experience necessary to prepare teachers, performing artists, and scholars; 7) To prepare students for careers or professional schooling fields that require creativity, collaboration, and an understanding of human experience as explored in the study of dance; 8) To provide rigorous dance training. Dance majors follow a program based on growth beginning with foundational theory courses, technique courses appropriate to each dancer's ability, and a culminating senior project. Two departmental minors are offered: 1) Dance: Performance and Choreography; and 2) Dance Teaching. Dance minors follow a program that provides for study in technique, creative and theoretical coursework. A minimum of eighteen (18) credit hours (GPA of 2.25 or better) must be completed in the Dance Area courses. Dance Teaching minors must complete a minimum of eighteen (18) credit hours (GPA of 2.25 or better) from the Dance Area courses.

In addition, teaching minors must satisfy all requirements for the Licensure Program as outlined by the Jerry and Vickie Moyes College of Education (including a minimum GPA of 3.0 for admission to the Education Program).
